Cater-cornered from this exhibit is the Robert Craig group of highly col- ored crotons and dracaenas edged with early cyclamens in bloom. The show has always been noted for its fine ferns from the private greenhouses in and about tlie city. Quite a number of these are here in their old-time glory. There is a commercial addition in the shape of a beautiful table of Asple- nium Nidus-avis from William K. Harris. The cut chrysanthemums are superb, though not numerous in the Japanese type. The pompons, including singles and semi-doubles, are evidently in- creasing in favor. They afford a wide range of color, in many lovely shades. Stroud, Meehan, Vincent and Michell have added beautifully arranged col- lections to those of the private gar- deners. The Meehan collection was arranged in baskets as well as in vases. Philip Freud had an electric re- minder that it is time to plant Mich- ell's hyacinth bulbs, its effect enhanced by pretty pompons, while opposite him John S. Hay showed flower movies for Dreer. While all is still bustle and prepara-"" tion, for the judges are coining soon, these few notes will give an idea of the show staged this week in Horticultural hall, Philadelphia. Phil. MISS WINDMILIiER'S SHOW. The traveler familiar with the high- ways and byways of the Gopher state will remember, at this prompting, the enterprising town of Mankato, situated on a bend of the Minnesota river. The traveler probably also may recollect that this place is the home of the Wind- miller Co., a concern consisting of a live-wipe corps of workers, headed by the energetic Miss Pauline Windmiller. Always with a keen eye for schemes that will create sales and new custom- ers. Miss Windmiller every little while startles the other members of the com- pany by putting over a topnotch, busi- ness-getting stunt.
